woke up because of a loud noise in the kitchen, even though the kitchen is far, I could still hear the noise so I immediately went downstairs.

I saw Manang Loleng cooking a lot of food, it's still early but she's already cooking.

"Manang? It's still early," I said.

"Your brother Shan is asking me to cook, he said he'll bring it to the hospital," Manang said.

I just nodded since I'm already awake, I'll just take a shower.

"Manang, can you make two sandwiches?" I asked.

"Sure," she quickly replied and smiled.

After taking a shower, I had my meal.

"Manang, can I have the sandwich you're making? Thank you," I said and hugged her.

It's still early so I visited my mother's grave.

My mother passed away when I was born, I didn't even get to see her.

I bought flowers and placed them on her grave.

Hi mommy, I will take care of daddy, I love you.

After that, I went to school. I went to the library hoping to see him.

But I didn't see him, what a waste.

I was wearing a hoodie and a skirt, I fixed my glasses and my bangs, then I proceeded to our classroom.

I passed by some girls, they looked at me from head to toe.

"Look at that girl, she could have been beautiful if she knew how to take care of herself, it seems like she doesn't care about her appearance, big yuck for her," the girl said

I know na pinariringgan nila ako, backhanded complement.

Pero nasaan ang pake ko?

Pumasok ako ng room

I sat quietly, then the girl beside me moved closer.

"Hi," she greeted me with a smile.

I returned the smile and said, "Hi, I'm Faye."

"I'm Kimberly, but you can call me kim for short," she introduced herself.

"I'll sit next to you here, I don't want to sit beside the others, they can be judgmental," she said.

"Did they judge you?" I asked.

"No, they weren't talking about me, but I overhear them when they talk. I don't like face shamers," she said.

"Ah, you can sit here," I said with a smile.

Our adviser arrived and started teaching.

During recess, kim immediately invited me to buy something.

It was my first time having someone to have recess with.

Nilibre niya ako ng siomai at palamig

"Thanks sa libre"I said to her.

She just smiled sweetly.

She's beautiful, with a tan complexion, a slightly high nose, thick eyebrows, straight hair, straight teeth, tall. She could be a model.

We heard some girls squealing in excitement and saw a guy.

I couldn't help but smile when I saw him.

Biglang tumawa si kim nang nakita niyang naka ngiti ako habang nakatitig sa lalaki

" huy ikaw ah, crush mo yun noh? " pang aasar niya
"Sabagay ang pogi, niya, bagay kayo" dagdag niya

"Hell nah! " kontra ko "naka tingin lang ako sa kanya"

"Asus, kunwari pa"

Kim bought something, so I excused myself and said I'll go to the library because I knew that's where the guy would go.

I saw him reading, so I approached him with a sandwich in hand.

"Hi, this sandwich is for you. You saved me yesterday from the ball, and you even paid for the tricycle," I said.

I placed the sandwich on his table.

Suddenly, Kim arrived.

"Oh, so kaya pala nag paalam kang pupunta dito sa library, andito pala ang cru-

I quickly covered her mouth and pulled her outside.

"Oh, naku ikaw ah, dumadamoves!" sabay tawa niya

"Sige suport ako sayo" Halakhak niya

"no, mali ka ng iniisip, binigyan ko siyang sandwich because sinagip niya ako kahapon, may  bola kasing tatama sana sa mukha ko pero sinagip niya ako at siya pa nag bayad ng sa trycicle kaya ayun binigay ko na lang yung sandwich" paliwanag ko

She smirked "na inlove ka naman? "

Umiling ako "naur"

tumawa lang siya.

Nang mag lunch ay inaya niya akong kumain na sa canteen pero, sabi ko na sa rooftop na lang kami kakain
Pumayag naman siya

"Wow, ang sasarap ng mga ulam at pagkain mo, pati yang gatas na dala mo yan yung mahal na gatas ah" aniya niya

tumawa lamang ako, binigay ko ang ibang pagkain ko sa kanya medyo busog ako ih

"Maganda ditong kumain noh? " tanong niy

"Yep, dito ako kumakain mag isa, first time ko ngang magkaroon ng kaibigan at ikaw iyon"

"Maganda kung ganon" sabay ngiti habang naka tingin sa pagkain

Pagkatapos naming kumain, agad na kaming bumalik sa room

"Ayan sa si Scott oh, ang pogi niya talaga" tili nung isang babae sabay turo sa lalaki, yung nagligtas sakin

So his name is Scott

"bagay na bagay kami" tili niya

"Excuse me, pero hindi kayo bagay" ungas ni kim sa babae
"Itong si fay-" hinila ko na siya papasok sa classroom, baka mapaaway lang to, mga palaaway pa namang yung mga babaeng yun

[4:00 pm]

"Sabay tayong umuwi" anyaya ni Kim

"Sorry pero may gagawin pa ako"

"ahh, sige goodluck sainyo ni Scott, love you"  aniya niya sabay tawa

"Baliw, Love you too" sabi ko at umalis na siya,
ngayon araw palang kami nagkakakilala pero, ang gaan na ng loob ko kay kim, comfortable na ako sa kanya

Pumunta akong library, ngunit ngayon ay may kasama na siya, lumapit ako sa kanya

"Hi" Bati ko

umubo ang dalawa niyang kasama

"Hi" yung isang kasama niya ang sumagot
Nginitian ko lang siya

"uuwi muna ako" malamig na sabi ni Scott at binalingan ako at siyaka tumalikod

I followed him.

"Hi, did you like the sandwich I gave you earlier?" I asked.

"Next time, don't bother making one even if it tastes good," he said as he got on the tricycle. I sat next to him.

pagkauwi ko, nag open ako ng facebook ko,  nag friend request si kim sakin, agad ko naman itong ni-comfirm

her text:
"Hi girl kamusta na agad kayo ni millan?"
Millan? Who?
My text:
"Millan? "
Her text:
" millan Scott Geronimo 🥰"

Nag haha react nalang ako sa kanya, ni search ko si Scott, at agad akong nag friend request
